Berger Montague’s nationally recognized Whistleblower, Qui Tam & False Claims Act Group has recovered More than $3 billion for federal and state governments, as well as over $500 million for our whistleblower clients.
Berger Montague’s award-winning team has litigated False Claims Act cases for over two decades. Berger lawyers Sherrie Savett, Joy Clairmont, Michael Fantini, and William Ellerbe won The Anti-Fraud Coalition’s Whistleblower Lawyers of the Year Award this year for their work on United States ex rel. Silver v. Omnicare, Inc., PharMerica Corp, et al. and United States et al. ex rel. Penelow v. Janssen Products, LP. Both were government-declined cases that Berger Montague doggedly litigated for over a decade. On March 28, 2025, the Court decided all post-trial motions, whereby it trebled damages, imposed civil penalties, and entered Final Judgment against Janssen for over $1.6 billion. The PharMerica case settled for over $100 million.
Few firms are willing to take the risk of fully litigating a qui tam case where the government has declined to intervene. Even fewer firms are willing to do so against large corporations. But we do. And we have a record of winning.
